Ingredients
- Eggs 2
- Uncooked oats 1 cup I am using the rolled ones in this recipe
- Butter half cup
- Granulated sugar 1 cup
- Vanilla essence 1 tsp
- Flour 1 and a half cup
- Salt half tsp
- Baking soda 1 tsp
- Ground cinnamon ¾ tsp
- Nutmeg a pinch
For the topping:
- Butter ¼ cup
- Brown sugar half cup I prefer to use the light one here but go for the dark too
- Cream/milk 3 tbsp
- Chopped nuts Any of your favorite nuts optional
- Coconut flakes ¾ cup
Instructions
- Start with soaking your oats in the water for 20-25 minutes.
- During this time, start mixing butter and sugar in the beater. Gradually add eggs and let them mix to get a nice and light texture. Finally, add the vanilla and mix it well.
- Put the flour, baking soda, and spices. Add the soaked oats now and fold this creamy mixture.
- Add the prepared pan mixture to a baking pan and bake it for 40-50 minutes at 350 degrees F.
- Mix all the topping ingredients during the baking and add the topping as soon as the cake is made. Let it heat under the broiler to get a gold color on the top.
- Make sure to watch the process while the topping is getting done. You do not want to overdo it.
- Serve it hot and fresh from the oven.
